May 20, 2019
​ 
Flat panel display producers in China are producing flexible AMOLED displays, and AMOLED displays with punch-holes. At China Information Technology Expo 2019 (CITE), BOE Technology, Visionox, Tianma Microelectronics, EverDisplay Technology and China Star Optoelectronics Technology (CSoT) displayed their flexible screens for use in foldable phones. The punch-hole is a small opening punched into a display allowing a front-facing selfie camera to be housed inside a phone’s screen. Some phones, like the Samsung Galaxy S10+, have two punch-holes in the screen for a dual selfie camera setup. The use of the punch-hole allows phone manufacturers to offer handsets with a high screen-to-body ratio and thin bezels without the use of a notch. CSoT is said to be shipping through hole and blind hole panels to Samsung. The latter has a punch-hole that goes completely through the display to the other side, while the latter has a hole that is drilled down to a certain depth. The company also showed off its self-illuminating displays. From: retailnews.asia
